One has legs measuring 1 cm and 30 cm. We can find the hypotenuse by using the Pythagorean theorem.
(1 cm)^2 + (30 cm)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 901 cm^2
c = sqrt(901) cm
The second triangle has one leg with length 700 cm. This leg corresponds to the 30-cm leg in the other triangle. Since the triangles are similar, we can use a proportion to find the hypotenuse of the second triangle.
adding salt makes the water freeze slower and evaporate slower too.
Step-by-step explanation:
While pure water freezes at 0°C (32°F), salt water needs to be colder before it freezes and so it usually takes longer to freeze. The more salt in the water, the lower the freezing point.
